Leeds is a perfect place where to invest in

Located just in the middle of Yorkshire, Leeds has a particular strength in the financial services sector where it is second in the UK only to London. In fact, 38% of the Leeds economy is actually based on finance, making the city a true key destination for thousands of young professional.

With an economic growth of more than 40% in the last decade, and with a forecasted further 21% growth in the next decade, it is not surprising that Leeds recorded 6% jobs growth in 2016 and it is expected this trend will continue in the forthcoming future, adding 35,000 jobs and £3.7bn to the city’s economy by 2036.

The growth of the South Bank area, which is in the process of being fully redeveloped, will fulfil the current lack of high quality accommodation close to the city centre, satisfying such current and future huge demand.

With this in mind, it is easy to see why experts predict that Leeds is set for 19.9% house price growth and 18.8% rental growth by 2022.

This is the right time to get ahead of the market and invest in a city which is certainly one of the next big up and coming property investment markets in the UK and has a huge potential for buy-to-let investors.
